SLC in May

[mockturtle]

What's the easiest route northbound through or around Salt Lake City in early May? I usually go through northern NV but the elevation is higher and much colder. Haven't been through SLC in quite a few years and remember it being a headache, not being able to change lanes, etc.

Thanks, folks!

I recommend taking the I-215W (west belt) and then continue north on the Legacy Parkway.

Depending on time of day (8-9a and 430-6p), the exit to the 215 can back up a little, but trust me it's worth it. If you stay on the 15 during those times you'll slinky in traffic for miles. You can maintain speed on the 215 95% of the time.

I don't normally go north of centerville, but it can be slow going between Kaysville and Ogden.

Your best travel time along the wasatch front is 10-330 to keep your sanity.

Thanks for the suggestion. I will also be going through SLC twice during May.

I-15 is just fine. We have taken that route several times with no problems. Except just before the Winter Olympics several years ago when all kinds of road construction was going on.
